(Sky) is in default under the Securities and Exchange Commission s (Commission) Rules of Practice, Rules 155 and 310, 17 C.F.R. sect. 201.155, .310 (1996), because it failed to appear at the hearing in the above cause, or to respond to the Order to Show Cause entered on October 15, 1997. The Order Instituting Proceedings (OIP) alleges, in pertinent part, that Respondent Sky made materially false and misleading statements and omissions of fact to investors and prospective investors regarding: a.the existence and value of its assets, liabilities, mining business, properties, precious metals reserves, environmental compliance, revenues, and mining technology; b.the magnitude of Sky s income, expenses, net loss, sources and uses of capital and financial ability to continue its activities without material interruption; c.the value of preferred stock issued by Sky or its subsidiaries in connection with acquisition of assets; d.the proposed spin-off of a subsidiary called Sky Scientific Financial Services, Inc. (Financial Services), the operations and personnel of Financial Services, and the value of financial instruments purportedly issued by a Russian bank and purportedly owned by Financial Services; e.the nature of services purportedly being performed by consultants whom Sky was paying with common stock, and capital raising being conducted or orchestrated by others; ======END OF PAGE 1====== f.the identity of the authors and publishers of promotional brochures and the actual compensation paid by Sky to the authors and publishers; and g.the prospects and likelihood of success of Sky s business ventures and the risks of investing in Sky stock. The OIP further alleges, in pertinent part, that Sky made materially false filings with the Commission and falsified its accounting records. Accordingly, I find the allegations in the OIP, insofar as they pertain to Respondent Sky Scientific, Inc. are true. The Division requests a cease and desist order. I find that it is in the public interest to order Respondent Sky Scientific, Inc. to cease and desist from further violations of certain sections of the Securities Act of 1933 (Securities Act) and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act). ACCORDINGLY, it is: ORDERED pursuant to Section 8A of the Securities Act and Section 21C of the Exchange Act that Sky Scientific, Inc. cease and desist from committing or causing violations or any future violations of Sections 17(a)(1), 17(a)(2), and 17(a)(3) of the Securities Act and Sections 10(b), 13(a), and 13(b)(2)(a) of the Exchange Act and Rules 10b-5, 12b-20, 13a-1, 13a-11, 13a-13, and 13b2-1 thereunder. _______________________ Robert G.
